Emoji problems

A note about the new editor: If you click the 3 vertical dots, you'll see more options.

Also, if you're on a phone or tablet, you can turn your screen to landscape and you'll see more editing options.

the whole menu bar changed. the toggle BB code went to a separate submenu too. i noticed this on SS last night. since there is white space on that bar it's a wasted click for me.

on the great side of improving things, i noticed sometime recently that it took a long time for a right click to give me the right response, now it is back to more normal, so thank you for that @Nifty!

as a funny aside i was thinking my mouse was going... which i'd hate since i just got this one not too long ago. haha...

Emojis have returned... but I notice that the menu bar has changed. @Nifty , could you summarize the changes? Did we gain or lose any functionality?

Ooops, I see there were already new posts concerning this.

Thanks y'all!

We're still doing some clean-up on the menu bars / editor buttons, and other misc. bits.

These youngsters and their concerns, @Nifty ...

Only around for 4 or 5 years and they just don't realize that in earlier formats ..

. we had to start TEG every morning with a crank. Emojis had to be drawn in by hand with a feather quill dipped in an ink well.

Which calls to mind one of the Star Trek movies, where Scotty is on pre-Alexa Earth, trying to access a computer. He calls out "computer..." several times, before being told that he needs to type in his question. "How quaint" he says.

you sure it wasn't via cattypoultry?

@Nifty , this was quite a site overhaul! I really like the change to the 'preview' function, which now toggles between views, rather than opening a second view below - much less scrolling. And thus far, all the previous problems with emojis seem to have disappeared.

When posting photos, the thumbnail versions are now much larger - only 2 can fit side-by-side. Is this change intentional? Or is there a way for us to re-size thumbnails? I'm not complaining, mind you; I do like the appearance.
